You can do two things, first as DroneSim noted, the no-cabin option is in the configuration menu for the aircraft, select that. But also, using IniBuilds external manager, you can select to install reduced cockpit textures. I am using both, and they have certainly helped me. Jack

I was running the beta, am now on the official release, it's not the plane, it's working with no issue for me. Did you clear out your community folder, I've seen reports of that being a cause of problems. Am enroute on a flight as I post this, and it doesn't crash, its even running 4x compression.. purring along like a kitten 😀

Why do people, when having issues just blame the plane, I have no issue in control, on the ground, in the air, not jerky, not weightless... but I did struggle to get the whole sim configuration right for some time. I fly both the 350 and premium 300 and they seem to be well-behaved for me. I would humbly suggest you pursue your configuration, or even hardware, it isn't the A350. Jack

You're missing something because, trust me, this works. Am in the middle of a flight so I can't go back and tell you the button sequence, OH... once you hit that CPNY request, you need to wait a couple second, it should change to a light color, then you highlight and click it again, you will then have the option to INSERT, did you see that? Good luck! Jack

Try a different aircraft, maybe it's a generic sim issue for you, addon perhaps?

I am testing a flight this morning, on the new update, from some of the chatter I was worried about performance, but I've seen no real difference from what was running a couple days ago. Maybe try the reduced cockpit textures? Flying KATL/KLAX in cruise, using autocompression as well, everything seems great to me.

Its common procedure (and I mean IRL) to hold the nose down on the takeoff roll until you reach VR.

Set the AFK option, that way this wont happen, you'll just find the plane paused when you wake.

Not sure I've ever paused right at TOD, maybe it does something funny, try a flight where you don't pause, just initiate a descent at the appropriate time. I've never had a descent fail to start when doing it that way. Do let us know if that is it.

shouting about it here probably isn't the procedure 🙃

There's enough false/mistaken reporting in these forums, just report your problems to Inibuilds, we don't need some intermediary...

Ya, there seems to be some issue with dynamic plan changes period, I was flying KATL/EHAM and late in the flight decided to change the VIA in my approach and doing that wiped the whole plan. I suspect there's some fundamental internal problem here, I hope Inibuilds can find and fix that. Meanwhile I just am leaving my STAR/APPR phase unset until the latter half of the flight.

Oh, and another thing, you said this is 2020, notice you are posting in the 2024 tree 🙂

Your description is kinda confusing, do you mean you have a joystick axis AND rudder pedals or are you not using pedals? I have steering set to be done with rudder, and only have my pedals controlling the rudder, have not seen a steering problem.

Well... for starters turn off FTL, BATC, and GSX and see if it stops, then turn on each in turn. I had FTL in 2020, but have not tried it in 2024 yet. From other postings I've seen if you want to bet on which I'd say GSX. But that's your debug strategy IMHO.

Were you AFK during the flight? The AP disconnects Ive seen were due to some "incident". A good idea is set AFK in your options, what that does is if one of these issues happens the sim is immediately paused, that way if you aren't there to see it at least it stops until you are there to respond. Its very handy.

It comes very late, I think at 20 feet, but I've heard it on every landing, btw, i use the noise-canceling headphone option in the plane, maybe it gets lost in other noise it you dont have that. I love the relative quiet when using that however.

I agree that there seems to be a lot, but frankly, from what I can see there's a lot of problems due to inexperience, plus the new sim and its weirdness. I feel it gives an impression that things are worse than they are. Remember, this is a really big complex new plane so ya, it has lots of little problems. But I'm really happy with it even now.

Not sure what fixed it, possibly that I changed options to auto day/night, but whatever, I'm displaying High IFR right now and its working! 💃

This morning I tried a workaround... I just didn't set up the arrival, I wasn't sure if that would work, but I can confirm it does. I then did it enroute, and that did not cause the plan any problems. Of course it still means that you decide once, I haven't tried to change it again.... I'd like to complete the flight this time 🙂 BTW, this plane is a long haulers dream, I have auto step, and auto compression both on, its doing 4x on the way to EHAM.

Just had the same problem, was enroute KATL/EHAM, I decided to tweak the VIA in the approach, but as soon as I did that... BAM, entire flight plan disappeared... Sigh, fortunately I was using time compression, and had really spent less than an hour before it happened. This is a BIG problem, I wonder what happens if you dont set arrival details at all?? The longer the flight the more chances the destination details will change 😞 I had nothing to copy so I just gave up for the evening... Please fix this Inibuilds!

Same behavior for me, I just dont bother with it, but it would be nice to have the Hi IFR map working. Hopefully, it can be fixed, I have Navigraph, and the terminal charts work fine.

AHA, I was so focused on the screen and mouse i forgot about those, that worked! Thank you so much for the quick response 🙂 Jack

I'm at KATL trying to set up a flight, in departure the SID that I want to use is below what's visible in the pull down, there is a bar on the right, one would think you could click and hold with the cursor and pull it down right? But that doesn't work, maybe its my control setup, has anyone else figured this out, there must be a way... HELP!

Just installed a 64G upgrade and on my slightly older system (i9 12th gen, 3080) it has really helped, the cockpit at the gate no longer is like syrup. So, for any that might be wondering, it's money well spent!
